Just looking at the WSJ article from the other day also indicates their appetite for steel is still quit ravenous. The big issue here is two-fold: are they developing for the people's future or are we about to witness a great peasant uprising? And that brings about the energy issue too; which alone is scary but with a gilded society as theirs, revolution may not be as far fetched as it sounds. I guess we'll see in about a decade how or if a crisis this turns out to be. By then maybe load demands can be sorted through advances in battery technology along with other diversified energy sources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
